10 Questions with ... Jon ManleyBRIEF CAREER SYNOPSIS:
Got my foot in the door back in 2002 and never said "no" to any opportunity is the short version. The long version is I began as a street teamer at KSLX in Phoenix. Then became a weekender for KEDJ in 2003 (thank you Dead Air Dave and Nancy Stevens!) and did everything there from overnights to production to morning show co-host. I was hired by Chris Ripley to do nights in Vegas at KXTE in 2010 and within 6 months I was Production manager/APD/MD/Afternoons. In 2014 I was hired by Garett Michaels to be APD and afternoons at the legendary KNDD in Seattle. During my time there we achieved the highest ratings in the station’s illustrious history. In 2019 it was time for a new adventure, which led me back to the station I grew up listening to, WKQX in Chicago!
